Haaaallo there my dearest sister/buddy in Islaam,

Bu working harder for money is really pointless, anything that you get has already been destined upon you, you will only get such an such an amount of wealth if Allaah has decreed that,

Amir Al-Mumineen (Alayhis Salaam) said: "Know with certainty that you cannot achieve your desire and cannot exceed your destined life. You are on the track of those before you. Therefore, be humble in seeking and moderate in earning because often seeking leads to deprivation. Every seeker of livelihood does not get it, nor is everyone who is moderate in seeking deprived."

You shouldn't care about people thinking of you as more superior to the nor should you want wealth for respect, instead you should aim to make better your din (religion),

Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) said: "The destruction that the fondness of fortune leaves on a man is more effective than the deed of two ravenous wolves that attack a shepherd less herd, one from the front and the other from the back. The Muslim's honor, however, lies in his religiosity."

Hazrat Hatim Asam (Rahmatullahi Alaih) has said: Do not die in a state of pride, greed and arrogance,
May Allah (Subahana Wa Ta'ala) give us (me first than you all) the ability to act upon His commandments and abstain from His prohibitions, Ameen (Say Ameen).

AsalaamuAlaykum Warahmatullah, be good now :D

:salamext:

Money in itself is not a bad thing, if you use it wisely.

Always remember 2 things - give more to the poor if you have more money (puts barakah in ur money)

and other main thing


You won't take it with you
​


So don't let it distract urself from doing good deeds because those are the only things you will take with you to the next life.

I don't know whether it is haraam, but if he can provide the basics for you, then you really shouldn't reject him. Be in this life as though you are a traveller.
 
Sister remember 1 thing, respect is more important, and you can easily loose your respect with the way you act with your money,
 
Help your parents, if you have money, make your own house - i don't know how much money do you have. Only look after your health too, don't forget to eat either. We had last year a faimous case of a mom, almost 30, from the top manager of a marketing company which died because of the work: no eat, no sleep. Her wage at the time of death was high for my country - 5.000 euro. And she wanted more to can improve her family lifestyle - she has a little son and loans from the bank, if i rem correctly. I can't say about her she was greedy :-[

yah well sis in my opinion... (dont read)

MONEY IS IMPORTANT. Money is like what keep ya right in this life!
Yah ya gotta work for it and all, you should start your OWN business tho. Besides theres nothing wrong with getting rich, just be a NICE rich person, not some loser that is all greedy and selfish and shows off like "OMG omg omg i HAVE to have that million dolla house!!" ok, more like giving charity, living nice, being nice to people, all dat.
Ya kno? You should give to charity when u can though.
Go drop sum off in ur masjid!
Ook peace :)
 
Calm down, chillllll! Money doesn't buy happiness. Remember that. As long as you have a nice stable job and the man you're planning to marry does. Then whatever, ya know? As long as you can live. Say you have children and you're still a workaholic. Do you think that could affect your children? So you gotta have the whole money flow problem fixed before you even plan a life. But take things one at a time, give charity to people that don't even have enough or no money. You should be happy with your life, and even though you have money, It doesn't seem that way. So that goes to show that Money isn't the factor of happiness, or satisfaction...because you'll always want more.
 
SeerenE Sorry Sis You Are Right I Wont Take It With Me. Aminah Yes My Parents Are Workholic And It Isnt Nice :( TrueMuslim True!
 
Keep earning, nothing wrong with earning 25k or 100k so long as you dont neglect your duties Allah swt. Dont let yourself become so deep into money that you forget the purpose of your life, its o ur deeds that will help us after we die and using money to donate to poor and needy is a goood way to get those deeds.

We see soo many people pass away and leave so much wealth behind, it makes you wonder what was all that hardwork to get all that money good for because it all stayed behind whilst that person has gone.

A person can havce all the money in the world but still can be more upset then a person who has no money at all.

Your not going to loose it because your rich, or because you will keep it? NO you can work for yourself, you dont need money to start a business, how rich are you ? and you dont need money 2 start a business depending on what you wanna do.
 
I can understand your obsession with money. I have that too sometimes. But then i experienced that when you have enough and you dont have to think where its coming from all the time, you eventually loose interest.

Being a workaholic is bad too, there are so many ohter things in this world to do than be a slave to money.

Think how to turn that around. Instead of being a slave for money, let the money work for you instead. How much do you have in savings? can you invest that into somethng that will bring you money whilst not taking up so much effort? Will that investment be safe?
Right now you're caught in the rat race. Money owns you isntead of you owning the money. You have to turn that around and control your own money instead inshaAllah.


As for rejecting a man because he does not have enough money, I too will reject a man if he cannot give me the lifestyle i'm used to.
And sis there are so many things you can do if you have free time. Learn more about this deen, even hairdressing classes lol :p
 
Hairdressing classses :? Sound interesting and what do they teach :?

There is nothing wrong with making money and nothing wrong with asking Allah to provide you with Ruzk, as long as you use that sustenance that Allah SWT has granted you in the right way. Use it for charity, use it for your family, use it to feed the poor, use it to feed your kids and spend it on your family. Work is a form of worship but everything has to be in perspective.
And remember Allah SWT knows best.
